The ATA is calling for nominations for the 2017 National Trucking Industry Awards.
These prestigious awards acknowledge the achievements of individuals and organisations in all fields of endeavour throughout the trucking industry.
The awards now open for nominations are:
- Outstanding Contribution to the Trucking Industry
- National Trucking Industry Woman of the Year
- National Professional Driver of the Year
- National Training Excellence Award
“I urge anyone who knows of an exceptional member of the trucking industry to come forward and nominate them for an appropriate award. In particular I encourage all of the ATA’s state and sector associations to nominate those unsung hard-working individuals that I am sure you all know,” ATA CEO, Ben Maguire said.
“These awards recognise people and businesses who make a significant and positive impact on the trucking industry. This country runs on trucks, and we wouldn’t be able to operate efficiently if not for the hard work and dedication of people who go the extra mile to make sure Australia’s goods are moved in a safe and professional manner,” Mr Maguire said.
The awards will be presented at Trucking Australia 2017 – 21-23 June – at the Darwin Convention Centre during the Gala Dinner on the ATA Foundation Sponsors Day, 23 June.
The Don Watson Memorial Award and the TruckSafe John Kelly Memorial Award, will also be presented on the night.
The ATA thanks our Foundation Sponsors BP, NTI and Volvo Trucks.
The ATA also thanks all the other sponsors of Trucking Australia 2017 and the awards: AEI Transport, Bridgestone, BPW Transpec, CIMC, Cummins, Daimler Truck & Bus, DECA, MTData, PACCAR, and Thermo King.
Nominations close 21 April 2017
